Chapter 372
Lee Han has a slightly serious expression.
“Please feel free to call me.”
“Are you calling comfortably?”
“……”
“The words just came out of nowhere.”
The seniors tried to find dignity belatedly.
Of course, it was surprising that Lee Han’s magical power was at an unheard-of level, but weren’t they seniors who entered Einro Guard first?
I couldn’t give up my dignity as a senior.
“But how many are there?”
“Even though there are no strong undead in District 1, does it make sense to run away only after seeing magic power? Isn’t the professor exaggerating?”
* * *
That made sense.
The seniors who witnessed the ghoul wild dog appearing in the passage on the other side whimpering and running away looked at Lee Han with eyes that saw something unbelievable.
“How many times?”
“W Six times.”
“Isn’t it much more effective than the undead repelling potion? You don’t need it?”
Originally, searching for the undead was lonely and suffocating.
The wizards had to take dark vision spells and walk slowly, paying attention to the sound of their breathing.
Loud noises, heavy breathing, sweat, body odor, etc. called the undead, and when they were fighting the undead, they heard the commotion and additional undead came.
At this point, collecting or exploring became meaningless and focused only on combat.
To avoid this situation, you had to thoroughly avoid the enemy from the beginning.
Using an undead extermination potion to block access was a good method, but it had the downside of consuming too much potion.
But today I discovered a new way.
Defeat the living human undead!
“Come this way. Junior.”
“I detected the undead. Junior. Walk over there quickly! okay! yes! The undead are running away!”
“Stand here for a moment! They can’t come!”
Seeing Lee Han standing there, Diret apologized in an apologetic voice.
“sorry. Junior. Are you overdoing it?”
“yes? no. Honestly, this is pretty easy.”
“…That’s right.”
“oh. Here is the Shadow Worm!”
“I’m going with the collecting net now!”
At Lee Han’s cry, Diret thought to himself when he saw the juniors running with equipment out.
‘…After half a year, seniors and juniors won’t change their positions…’ *
* *
About two days after Lee Han and his party moved in, Bakdeogul, who was in the village, began to feel strange.
“…Is that strange?”
It was not uncommon for two or more days of error from the original overlapping date.
The other parties in the village seemed to be feeling it as well, and it caught my eye that they were talking in a vacant lot.
“What do the knights say?”
“It hasn’t been opened yet, and as soon as it opens, several times I will tell you first…”
“…Those bastards can’t believe it?”
Bakdeogul felt an ominous feeling creeping up on him.
People with a bit of brain in the empire didn’t believe in the knights.
The knights had their own solid inner logic, so there were often times when they broke promises arbitrarily.
“Check your surroundings. Is there a missing party or not!”
“Okay!”
“And go to the driver and keep scooping! If you want to react strangely, push hard. Even the knights won’t come out strong if they get stabbed!”
I released a person and poked it here and there, and clues came out quickly.
Even the fact that the group of wizards who had arrived a few days ago had not been seen for a while, and that one or two of the knights had averted their gaze.
When the answer became clear, Bakdeogul was so angry that his face turned red.
“How dare these knights?!”
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry!”
“Let’s call all the bastards who are resting. I’ll be leaving right now!”
Bakdeogul gnashed his teeth, vowing to pay off this debt someday.
The purpose is more important, so I’m going to skip it, but these articles were really disgusting.
“Knight! Is it true that the dimension has opened?”
“What is this! Why are you hiding it!”
Other adventurers’ parties gathered in the clearing came and were arguing first.
Those who heard the rumors belatedly cried out in anger.
“Answer me!”
“It seems to be a misunderstanding.”
“yes!?”
“The dimension opened an hour ago today.”
“……”
“…What is that…! I hear you! I heard that two days ago, a black thing slithered in the forest! Isn’t that an open entrance!”
“It is nonsense.”
“Originally, when an anomaly like this happens, rumors spread as well.”
‘Really dirty shameless brats!’
Even in this situation, the adventurers admired the iron walls of the knights who never admitted their mistakes.
It wasn’t that anyone couldn’t write an article for nothing.
“Then why are you telling me now that it opened an hour ago?”
“If it was announced to go in right away as soon as it opened, how much damage would have been done while fighting each other. Let’s look at the situation now.”
“At times like this, an orderly position is necessary.”
“……”
The adventurers realized that they were the only ones to lose if they looked further.
‘pup.’
‘Be cursed.’
They stammered and quietly moved towards the entrance of the dimension. Bak De Gul also followed after him with a party.
I wanted to start a knife fight right away, but I couldn’t cause a commotion.
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry.”
“……”
“I will definitely find and secure the mushrooms.”
“If you don’t want to die, then of course you should. Properly explore other parties. If there are those who have found the location of the mushroom…”
The subordinate shuddered and nodded at the words of his superior, who seemed to smell bloody even when he spoke quietly.
* * *
“Found it! I found it!”
“Quick dig it up!”
“Can I help too?”
“no. You can stand still.”
“Don’t lose your strength for nothing. It will consume your mana.”
Gainando and Rapadel grumbled and picked up mushrooms from the ground and put them in a basket.
‘I’m good at standing still too!’
Unlike Lee Han, other first-year students looked after him and there was nothing like that. I had to work as much as I came.
“As expected, it was great that I came before everyone else. Everything in District 1 seems to have been wiped out.”
“yes? I think I’ve got everything I can get now.”
The seniors put their heads together and compared the maps they drew.
It was a complex, winding cave, but thanks to the wizards wandering around for two days, it was fairly complete.
“I checked here.”
“This is all over. I also dug up all the dark stones attached to the wall.”
“I might have to go to District 2 soon.”
When Kainando sent a sorrowful glance, the seniors said as if they understood.
“Don’t worry, I’ll let you guys out and go in.”
“Unlike other times, it’s enough because I’ve earned a lot of time.”
* * *
“Did you open it two days late?”
“Whoops. It wasn’t very difficult.”
It must have saved a lot of time. The map must have been completed. The students who came out were surprised to hear the driver’s explanation.
I thought it would pay me two days.
“Somehow, I thought I couldn’t see other people…”
Lee Han, who was listening, suddenly remembered and asked.
“for a moment. Then, don’t those who arrived late have nothing to pack in District 1?”
“yes. But what can I do?”
“If it’s unfair, you should have come earlier.”
“Would you like to enter District 2?”
The shameless reaction of the warlocks made Lee Han think that he knew a little bit why warlocks were criticized in the empire.
“I have nothing to be sorry about. Junior. Because we did what we had to do Let’s take a break and organize the ingredients before we go in.”
“It’s good that you can rest a little before entering the second area.”
Seniors said happily.
Of course, if I were to rest as much as I had to save on my expenses, I would just eat some rough food from the inn and lie down, but it was much more comfortable than wandering around in a gloomy undead dimension.
“How about asking those merchants for more food? I think you’ll run out of energy if you only eat what’s available at the inn… Merchants will be in trouble because they don’t have enough mountain mushrooms right now, so a little change will be welcome.”
“…Can’t juniors just raise their grade and come to our grade??”
The students were moved by the sight of the juniors giving their ears-opening opinions just by listening to them.
* * *
“I was going to kill you anyway, but it worked. Kill!”
“You dare to persimmon?!”
When Bakdeogul’s men started swinging their swords, the opponent was startled.
At best, I thought I was a saengnim who came to see rumors and started a fight, but such a sudden surprise attack.
“Kill him!”
“These bastards got us first! Break it down and take it away!”
The parties who arrived late in the empty District 1 suddenly became engulfed in internal strife.
At first, the parties that went around thinking that it must be bad luck and soon something useful will come out became nervous and began to doubt the other parties.
-Didn’t those children come out first?
-It was suspicious that he moved first, but no way…
The air was pulled tight with a sense of tension.
It was Bak Deogul who broke this situation first.
I had to gather the ingredients, but I had no intention of taking these unnecessary competitors with me.
I was going to kill him anyway, but when they even quarreled, Bakdeogul’s men, who thought it was good, swung their swords and attacked the other adventurer party.
“Stop!! It’s an attack!!”
“Keep your head down! Raise your shield! Arrows are flying!”
“Don’t let those bastards use potions!”
“scroll! A scroll?!”
Shouts bounced around, and the other parties who heard it from afar were shaken by it and began brandishing their weapons.
“If you approach, I will kill you! Don’t come closer!”
“Aren’t you guys the guys we fought earlier? Don’t come any closer! If you don’t want to be suspicious!”
An atmosphere of on-the-move where they wield their weapons without remorse.
Bakdeogul didn’t care.
“Now that this has happened, I’m going to get rid of everything.”
“Are you okay?”
“Looking at the way it is now, it would be better to deal with it than to leave it alone. Even if it’s a bit tiring, I’ll take it and deal with it. District 2 is next.”
* * *
Students who finished recharging entered again.
This time, the number of people was reduced by about half. It was because the target was District 2.
“You will feel the difference the moment you enter.”
“Coke. The undead in District 2 will attack even if they are frightened by magic. They are that ferocious.”
“Of course, if you avoid it well, you won’t have to meet them, so you don’t have to worry about that.”
“The younger than that. Shall I carry your luggage?”
The seniors were worried that Lee Han would get tired carrying luggage.
If Lee Han gets tired, his magic power will decrease, and then the undead extermination in Area 1 will also weaken…
“Wait.”
Professor Mortum frowned and said.
“A fight broke out.”
“You mean in here?”
“How long has it been open?”
It wasn’t uncommon, but it wasn’t too often.
The students were already puzzled by the appearance of other people fighting.
“Coke. Originally, I don’t intervene, but this time…”
The fight that Professor Mortum saw with the original plan magic was one side attacking the other one-sidedly.
“Should I prepare for a fight?”
“no. Coke. His skills are quite good, but there would be nothing good if he dared to fight.”
“Can’t we drive away the undead instead? The opponent is also a human, but wouldn’t it be tiring if the undead kept coming?”
To Lee Han’s question, Professor Mortum was about to ask what nonsense he was talking about, but hesitated.
“…it seems to be okay. It’s not even dangerous.”
“There is also an undead extermination here, so it is possible enough!”
“hey. You idiot. Juniors are listening.”
“……”
